Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank return a Palestinian man dead just an hour after detaining him, reportedly with signs of torture. At the time of his detention, he had been sleeping with his family on their roof. https://t.co/6GeBTrXVrb

""Amira Abdelhamid’s case is a stark example of how counterterrorism laws are being used aggressively to suppress political dissent and indeed silence those who question these very laws," https://t.co/ZuXSI1dzKx

Past 5 days:
–IDF shoots American
–US says will fund unit that killed Palestinian-American
–US sends Israel $3.5B to buy weapons & $260M of "smart" arms
–IDF bombs school, kills 100
–IDF kills newborns, mom, grandma
–US celebrates Geneva Convention then approves $20B weapons sale

If you read this having woken up from a slumber over the last ten months you would think that Iran and Hamas are at war because they are the only named belligerents here.

Human rights group @btselem has released a damning report detailing systematic abuse of Palestinians in Israeli prisons

[Philippe Lazzarini @UNLazzarini]

An almost daily occurrence.
At least eight schools hit in the last 10 days, including six @UNRWA schools.

The war robbed the girls and boys in #Gaza of their childhood & education.

Schools must never be used for fighting or military purposes by any party to the conflict.
Schools are not a target.

The blatant & constant disregard of international humanitarian law continues unabated.
All rules of war have been broken in #Gaza.
Losing our common humanity must not become the new norm

“I have never seen a mass casualty event like today [13 July] Every corner in the hospital was busy. Every space was occupied by the injured or bodies of the dead” says Dr Mohammed Abu Mughaiseeb, MSF deputy medical coordinator, working in Nasser hospital, Khan Younis, south Gaza

[Prof. Hanna Kienzler 🧡 🇵🇸 @HannaKienzler]

.@KingsCollegeLon has taken issue with students who disrupted our Open Day demanding the College to take a stance in the face of Israel's war on #Gaza. They are vilifying instead of listening to our students and distort facts. Below my letter in response to senior management.

[William Dalrymple @DalrympleWill]

An Orwellian @BBCNews article on Israel's medaeval siege of Gaza which almost fails to mention the siege & is worded to suggest that the water systems are 'broken' rather than destroyed the IDF

SOAS anthropology and sociology dept (@SOASanthro) is recruiting 3 lecturers to start Sept 24. Amazingly collegiate department & terrific teaching planned. One post = T&R. For details see: https://t.co/5L850TFfVg

[Prof. Hanna Kienzler 🧡 🇵🇸 @HannaKienzler]

More than 76% of schools in #Gaza require ‘full reconstruction or major rehabilitation’ to be functional after having been targeted by Israel. This is the deliberate attempt to destroy a people's future, development, and empowerment. #StopGazaGenocide‌NOW
